Rohde & Schwarz signal and spectrum analyser for rent cuts overheads
The addition of the FSW presents engineering professionals with access to a state-of-the-art product that offers copious analysis bandwidth. Livingston can offer flexible rental solutions if you only need such equipment for a limited time.
The FSW boasts industry-leading figures in relation to both phase noise (-137 dBc at 10 kHz carrier offset) and dynamic range (88 dBc with noise cancellation), plus the instrument can carry out 1000 measurement sweeps per second which means that engineers can explore and evaluate wideband-modulated or frequency agile signal traces. Aimed at the analysis of the complex signals from next generation mobile networks, wireless LAN systems, satellite communication infrastructure and radar equipment, this instrument is able to determine the presence of spurious emissions, deal with wideband frequency hopping signals and accurately track short pulses with brief rise and fall times.
The high performance signal/spectrum analyser solution can be supplied in a variety frequency range options – from 2 Hz to 8/13.6/26.5/43.5/50/67 GHz. When accompanied by an external harmonic mixer, available from Rohde & Schwarz via Livingston, this upper limit can be boosted still further to reach the 110 GHz mark. The unit has <0.4 dB total measurement uncertainty for any frequency below 8 GHz.
While with conventional signal and spectrum analysers different standards (GSM, CDMA2000, WCDMA, LTE, etc.) are measured separately, the R&S FSW has the capacity to measure multiple standards simultaneously which translates into far greater efficiency when it comes to identifying and eliminating anomalies arising through interaction between different signals. The 12.1-inch format, touch-enabled display incorporated into each unit provides a highly intuitive and simple to operate user interface. By utilising its MultiView function, a series of measurements can be displayed alongside one another in separate windows – thereby making it easier to consult different sets of results in a quick, convenient manner and minimising the risk of errors of judgement occurring.
